I am so excited to share some festive holiday looks with Vineyard Vines and Helen from Style Inherited today. A few weeks ago, Helen and I did some virtual festive activities and we are so happy to share them with you today. Vineyard Vines is the epitome of classic, preppy, and size-inclusive style. Their clothes embody a lifestyle where everyday is a happy, easy adventure. You also know I love shopping Vineyard Vines because they go up to 3x and 37, and have some of the best plus-size classic pieces in the game. Helen and I share a mutual love of modern day preppy style, so we wanted to show you how you can still have fun with your friends at a distance (try different states!), and in style. Not being able to be together in person is something we’re all navigating right now, and Helen and I came up with two creative ideas you can do with friends virtually to get in the spirit, and dress the part. You can find Helen’s blog post with full outfit details here, too!Â
VIRTUAL GIFT WRAPPING IN BLACKWATCH DRESSESÂ
Helen and I have two different body types but we love to twin in a good, cheerful dress. Vineyard Vines Blackwatch Velvet V-Neck Dress was perfect for A virtual gift wrapping party that would be so fun to do with friends. It’s classic and is a great dress for both now and later. With a gift wrapping party, everyone gets dressed up, you grab a few gifts you want to wrap, and at the end you show off your holiday creation. It’s a different take on a gift exchange that is more of an activity, with less to mail and coordinate in these times! Our Vineyard Vines’ Dresses are perfect for this holiday season because it is beyond comfortable. The velvet really elevates things, but it feels like a cozy and easy dress you could also curl up at home in. Whether you are celebrating virtually, at home, or with a few loved ones, this dress is good for now in our more casual climate, and the future when we can all gather! (Runs tts and goes up to a 3x, if in-between, size down. I am in XXL).
VIRTUAL HOT COCOA DATEÂ IN SHERPAS
I have to say, Helen is one of the more creative people I know! She came up with a virtual hot cocoa date and we cozied up, made some cocoa, and did a cheers on facetime! Our Vineyard Vines Sherpas were the obvious choice because they are festive, oh so cozy, and really perfect for a brisk walk or hanging at home. Helen and I each picked out a sherpa that matched our festive personalities, and I love how she looks in hers. A virtual hot cocoa date is another fun activity that makes being apart feel a little more normal. Just grab your cocoa fixings, turn on your facetime, and create your cocoa while you catch up. These small steps really make days feel good. The sherpa runs true to size (up to 3x and I am in xxl), and we paired them with a striped cotton turtleneck (more sizes available here) and white denim. Vineyard Vines’ denim fit is amazing, I love how they feel throughout the hips. When you style white denim with a festive touch they look great during the holidays, they really are a year-round staple!Â
Helen and I had a blast pulling together a couple fun holiday activities you can do with friends while feeling stylish, comfortable and festive in Vineyard Vines looks. Vineyard Vines entire holiday collection is so good, it is a plaid lover’s dream. I also just love how their clothes make you feel, I want to take on my day, feel great, and have a good time (virtually!). Don’t forget to check out Helen’s blog post here!Â
